WHY HENDERSON
What Makes This Market Worth the Move
Henderson is consistently recognized as one of the safest cities in the United States and is known for its clean, family-friendly, master-planned communities. Located within the Las Vegas metropolitan area, it offers the advantages of Nevada’s no state income tax, convenient access to a major international airport, and a high quality of life in a more relaxed, master-planned suburban setting.
For dual-career households, Henderson combines exceptional professional opportunities with an ideal environment to live in, raise a family, and enjoy the amenities of Southern Nevada.
LIFE HERE
A Suburban Setting with Easy Access to a Major Metropolitan Area
Henderson is consistently positioned as one of the most family-oriented large cities in the region, with master-planned neighborhoods, parks, and a strong community feel. Summerlin, the Strip, professional sports, and the Las Vegas dining and entertainment options are a short distance away.
Weather is worth mentioning but should be considered in conjunction with lower housing costs, no state income tax, and major metro amenities.
Family-First Neighborhoods
Established, master-planned neighborhoods with parks, youth sports, and a quieter residential setting than Las Vegas proper.
Schools
Henderson provides a suburban lifestyle with a strong emphasis on family living and more consistent school performance than is commonly found across Las Vegas proper.
